THE FIRST STEP IS THE DEEPEST
The Pegasus 3 is a universal paramotoring wing for beginning and leisure pilots who want a confidence-inspiring wing that is also fun to fly, both with and without a motor.
The choice of a first wing could be the most important decision you ever take. The Pegasus 3 builds on the success of its predecessor, whilst offering some new refinements:
- even easier inflation and take-off thanks to an exclusive new fabric developed by GIN and Myungjin
- shorter riser for easier management and control
- forgiving-yet-fun handling
- advanced risers for easy big ears and stable accelerated flight
Up, up and away
Take-offs can be nerve-racking, but not with the Pegasus 3. The risers are easy to sort on take-off, the wing comes up smoothly and cleanly, the lift-off comes early and over-enthusiastic control inputs are forgiven. Take-offs will quickly become an element of flight to enjoy rather than to fear!
Durable, yet light
A first wing like the Pegasus needs to be durable, as it will be groundhandled a lot. Yet lighter wings generally offer better slightly better inflation and take-off, besides being more compact. For this reason, GIN was motivated to develop a new PU-based composite coating fabric in partnership with Korean fabric manufacturer Myungjin. After years of development and over 2 years of field testing, this fabric has proved itself to offer the best of both worlds: durability and light weight.
For paramotor or free flight
The Pegasus 3 can be flown with or without motor. Powered pilots can gain a gentle introduction to the joys of free flight, and vice versa.
